Question

How to program the lock for Tamper Time parameters in E-Plex 30xx/50xx?

Answer

You can set a Tamper Time Wrong Tries parameter referring to the number of times the wrong code can be entered before the lock goes into Tamper Shutdown Mode. 

For example, if you program the lock to accept three wrong tries, the lock will tolerate three wrong entries, staying locked but providing visual feedback (see visual message chart in rear section). After that, it will go into a Tamper Shutdown Mode and remain locked until the end of the Tamper Shutdown Time period - the length of that period is configured in Step 4 of this procedure (below).

Required User Level: Master, Manager

1. Set the tamper time for the period of time during which the keypad will remain inaccessible after the specified number of wrong Access Codes are entered
2. Put the lock into Pushbutton Programming Mode.
3. Enter the code as follows - 006#TT# (TT is seconds - 00 to 90 seconds).
4. Example of Complete Entry: 006#60#. (for 60 seconds)
5. Enter the code as follows: 007 #TT# (TT is number of wrong entries - 03 to 09), let’s use 05 for example.
6. Example of Complete Entry: 007#05#.
7. Enter another # to indicate the end of programming.
8. The lock will stay locked after three wrong entries for the length of time you select in the steps below, even if a valid code (including the Master or a Manager Code) is entered after the three wrong codes. Only the mechanical key override will open the lock during the tamper shut down Period.
9. Enter another # to indicate the end of programming.

In this example, the lock will now remain locked for 30 seconds after three wrong Access Codes have been entered. No codes, even valid ones or the Master Code, will work in the lock until that time period has elapsed. Only the mechanical override key will open the lock during the tamper shutdown.
